Actually NW, I have a copy of The Militia Act of 1792 along with the the revisions of 1795. Thus far I see no indication that membership in the Militia was requisite for gun ownership. Once again, I see just the opposite with no mention of such a requirement of membership to validate the 2nd Amendment Right to keep and bear arms by the general population.
